Whenever I use ffmpegX to convert a vob file into a SVCD file, it only appears to encode the first bit of video, perhaps 10 minutes, and then shows a single frozen frame for the rest of the video. The audio however continues to play for the entire movie track. I have tried a couple of vobs and the same result. Given the definate ptential that I see with this product, and the fact that obviously people are having successful results, I was hopin that someone had some helpful advice. Anything that anyone can throw me would be most appreciated
 
Ahh, the dreaded 4 GB bug. Actually I've seen it quite a few times on VOBs under 4GB. Because it's freezing, I assume you have the QT MPEG-2 component installed and you have the "QT decode" option selected in ffmpegX? Anyway, in order to fix the problem you'll need to demux and then remux the VOB; this fixes the timecode.

Here's a link to a tutorial I made for SVCD creation w/ffmpegX.

Come to think of it I need to mention the 4GB bug.....
